Youth Leadership Council

EarthEcho’s Youth Leadership Council (YLC) is a platform for today’s emerging trailblazers and visionaries in the environmental space. Comprised of diverse leaders, ages 15-22, each YLC member has demonstrated an ability to engage and mobilize their peers and their communities to change the world. Through EarthEcho’s platforms, YLC members are empowered to develop programs and conduct outreach to youth around the world. Members also support our work to empower young people to change our planet by providing valuable insight and expertise from a youth perspective to the development of our programs and work.

As part of our work to cultivate young environmental leaders, YLC members have the unique opportunity to serve in an advisory capacity and gain an understanding of the operations of an international non-profit organization. In this role YLC members help expand the impact of our programs, interact with leaders in the fields of conservation and education, gain access to resources to explore personal conservation interests, and have the opportunity to serve as a youth member on EarthEcho’s Board of Directors.

We’re proud to work with this outstanding group of young leaders who help drive our work to empower their peers around the globe to take an active role in protecting our planet.
